A federal judge has ordered probation and house arrest for a former Ohio wildlife officer convicted of helping a South Carolina hunter illegally obtain an Ohio deer license at a discount that saved him about $105.

Allan Wright also was convicted of seizing the antlers of two deer taken illegally and giving the antlers to a friend instead of securing them as crime evidence.

Cincinnati federal judge Michael Barrett on Tuesday sentenced Wright to three months of house arrest, five years of probation and a $1,000 fine.

Government prosecutors said the case involved a pattern of criminal conduct and that Wright's actions jeopardized the honor system that is the backbone of state hunting and fishing programs.
